HP 2055dn on windows 7 pc having problems with printer communicating with pc . it is hard wired to pc with usb cable. was printing fine for a few letters then  refuses to print.  I have never had such a problem with a new printer before. It is not wireless and there should be no real issues. can anyone help

Drew76,
Good morning (depending on where you are)!
Based on your description I'm not sure what the problem could be. Not knowing what you've done already, I'll go ahead and ask some basic troubleshooting questions:
1) Do you have the lastest drivers installed for this product (http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html)?
2) Have you restarted your PC since connecting your new printer?
3) Have you restarted the printer since you started seeing the problem?
4) Is this a known-good USB cable?
5) What kind of job are you trying to print? For example, is it a simple Word .doc or a large PDF document?

    Brand new computer with Windows 8.1 will not sync to iPod Classic 120G.  Windows does not recognize anything but iPod Touch?  Is there a simple solution.  Diagnostics have run and failed to point to a fix.

    Might be worth tearing down the whole iTunes install and starting over...
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • Brand new iMAC keeps hanging

    Hi All
    I received my brand new iMAC today - having never had a MAC anything before - decided to switch as fed up of hanging, viruses etc on PCs and also need more multimedia options.
    Have set it all up it keeps hanging - for no reason i click on force quit and sometimes it will and sometimes it won't even do that - I am totally confused it has done it to me on MAC Office, iCalc, i photos, i tunes etc etc
    Do i have a dud machine am i doing something wrong???? Please help.
    Cheers

    Kazzaboobers,
    Welcome to the forum. Chances are you don't have a dud. In case you haven't read the manual I would recommend doing so before playing with your machine, you will be surprised what you learn.
    Also when you mention the machine is hanging please describe with a little more detail so we can understand exactly what you mean.
    You are covered by 90 days for free telephone support, if the problem persists take advantage of the support and give Apple a call. In the rare event you did get a dud they will replace the machine within 14 days of purchase.
    Last IMHO it is a good idea to get AppleCare, this gives you 3 years of phone support and an additional 2 years of warranty. You can find it online (Amazon for example) for less than Apple charges.

  • Brand new lumia 920, failed to use in 3 day??

    This is what happened to me:-->
    I bought my phone at 4 March 2013
    On 5 March 2013, i charge my phone and it suddenly shut down it self and unable to switch it on.
    Same day i bring it to Nokia Care at the place i purchase, the person who incharge told me that might be the WP OS problem. then after he/she help me to switch on back my phone without confirmed what's the actual problem.
    he/she told me in case happen again, hole the volume down button+power button+plug USB to the PC. then the phone will like refresh its system. 
    On 7 March 2013, the phone happened again bout the shut down problem. then i just follow what i learn from the nokia care centre to solve it.
    On 9 march 2013, the FACEBOOK and CAMERA apps was Unable to open. just like u click it, it PoP out again to the main screen. even i restart phone, Factory reset, still remain the same problem.
    On 10march 2013 i bring to Nokia Care again, and them just received my phone and send to repair.
    on 17 march 2013, my Lumia is finally done by repair. and i go collect it. same day at night, Sim card was keep on Disconnect, No line at all, suddenly unable to detect at all.
    18 march 2013 i went to Nokia Care again, then they said" Oh Okay, we have to send in repair" again?
    19 march 2013, Nokia Care called me and told me It's Done. and i go collect it again. And i mention about can i add some money or what something else to exchange a brand new lumia 920? What the person who incharge my case respond was, "let us send to repair for 1 last time first ok? let see what happen"
    20 march 2013 i realise there is no FLASH on my camera, not function at all. even i install apps"flashLight" to test same no function.
    21 march 2013 i bring to Nokia Care again. and they said " send in repair " again?? 
    Until now, no respond. Under this situation, Is that nokia should Exchange a brand new phone for me? I paid money just for testing ur Lumia 920? Not even mention exchange a new lumia 920 for me? repair repair and repair..  Is this what i deserve to get?  

    I have faced the same case. After 2 days i bought the Nokia Lumia 920, the phone suddenly shut down itself and unable to switch it on.
    Next day i bring it to Nokia Store, the person who incharge help me switch on back my phone without confirmed what's the actual problem. The person asks me to go to Care Centre and i did not go because i think it is recover.
    However, after 2 days, same case happen and i found this comment. Im wondering do I need to send my phone to Care Centre to repair as there are many problems occur after sending to repair. May I know what is the main reason cause the problem? (Make me disappointed on Nokia phone)

  • Brand new iPod keeps freezes all the time, Why?

    The problem started early this year with my old iPod classic (couple years old) was beginning to freeze all the time so I just thought it was time to get a new one so I did but the same probably happened straight away and just just died after 2 weeks of constant resting so I got a brand new replacement and the same thing is happening to this one too, my question is why does this still happen and how to stop it?

    You are still under warranty.  Call Apple Care, get a case number and keep it handy.

  • Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air. In bootcamp i allocate the partition then i click install and bootcamp will not see the disk.

    Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (on my MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air via remote disk. In bootcamp (on my air) i allocate the partition, then i click install, and bootcamp will not see the disk from my macbook pro's drive. How do i get the bootcamp assistant running on my MB air to automatically find the disk in my macbook pro with the ISO image of windows 7? The remote disk on my air can find the cd but bootcamp will not begin installing it. Anyway to do this without buying the damned usb drive?

    I don't know first hand if you can use the Remote Disk option with Windows but as of 10.7.2 you can now use BCAssistant to make a bootable USB (thumb drive or external disk) W7 installer with the Boot Camp drivers installed also. Have you tried that yet?

  • HT201364 why can't I download os x mavericks my computer is brand new It keeps defaulting the computer is out of date

    Why am I unable to download os x mavericks on my new macbook pro with retina

    Because the brand new (late 2013) models come with a version of Mavericks tailored to the new hardware.
    Eventually there will be a version you'll be able to download, but the App Store version doesn't currently have the necessary drivers to successfully run your machine.  Check your build number - it's different to the App Store build of 13A603.

  • Brand new MacBook Air fails to shut down

    I took ownership of a brand new 13" MacBook Air on Friday 15th, have been trying it since then and found that on occasion it hangs during the shutdown process. This has happened five times in two days of use (it's now the 17th). The only way to get the MBA to shut down is to hit the start button for an extended period otherwise it will sit spinning for eternity. I have experimented and tried to shutdown programmes first before shutting down the MBA, but this doesn't appear to help.
    I have only installed a few programmes on the MBA since receiving it, (Lightroom and 1Password), everything else is as it was when it was delivered, brand new. I purchased it via the online store and requested that it was upgraded with 8GB RAM and a 1.7GHz processor, so it came from China with these upgrades carried out.
    Could this be a memory problem? I understand that MBs can be fussy about what type of memory is installed. It seems odd as the memory was installed in the factory.
    Should I do a VRAM and/ or PROM reset? Are either of these responsible for controlling shut down procedures?
    It is very disappointing as I had been really looking forward to getting the MBA and I am concerned that this might be an inherent fault with this particular machine. Any help would be appreciated. I will contact Apple Support as I have 90 days phone support, but I thought I should try you all first.
    Chris

    RAM should not be a factor for a brand new Mac. Third party software is often the culprit.
    Make sure to log out of 1Password before shutting down >  https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/5265/1password-cancels-logout
    Tip ... there's no need for a third party password manager. The pre installed Keychain Access app can do that for you.

  • Brand new i7 keeps freezing

    I have had my brand new imac for less than a week, and it keeps freezing up at least 2 to 3 times a day while using Aperture 3 free trial or just using Safari. I have to shut it off completely using the power button. What should I do?

    Shouldn't need to on a brand new machine, but try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
    You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Utility reports and if DU was able to repair them. Disk Utility's Disk Repair is not perfect and may not find or repair all directory issues. A stronger utility may be required to finish the job.
    After that Repair Permissions.
    No need to report Permissions errors....we all get them.
    If that didn't help try a new post in the Intel-based iMac forum.
    This forum is for the much older iMac G4's.

  • Brand new MacMini keeps dropping wifi signal please help

    Hi i have a brand new macmini which has been working perfectly fine untill today where safari seemed to be really slow sometimes not even loading searches, i checked if my wifi was connected but it changes from connected to searching for network.. My router cant be the problem because its in the same room and i have 6 other apple devices that work fine..ive searched all over for solutions and tried some but still no luck..does any one have an idea as to what i can do to resolve this annoying problem please?

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • Brand new Mac Mini failing to start

    I got my Mac Mini 2 days ago (brand new direct from Apple, with Lion install) and everything worked fine until last night when I downloaded and attempted to install various Apple software updates (including a security update). I left the computer alone for about 5 minutes while it restarted and when I came back the screen was off and the computer was unresponsive to keyboard/mouse input.  The Mac's fans were clocking at very high speed and the unit was hot so I powered off by pressing the power button for a few seconds.
    I came to switch the computer on this morning and although it powered up and the indicator light came on, immediately the fans kicked in to a very high speed and there was no signal to my monitor.
    I've tried all the steps recommended in the FAQ (resetting the PRAM, the SMC etc) and now I don't even get the indicator light.
    Are there any tips/suggestions you can offer before I contact customer support?

    With a brand new computer like that, I would take it back to Apple and ask them to fix it.

  • My brand new iMac keeps dropping wifi connections

    At least 2-3 times daily my brand new Imac drops the connection to my home network- I have tried to reboot my airport extreme- my ipad and iphone and nest thermostat do not have these issues of dropped connections.  As soon as I click the pale wireless signal at the top of the imac, it finds my home network and joins again, but it is a drag to have to redo this every time I want to stream music around the house or check my mail. Any Ideas?  All of my updates are current.  Thanks

    This has helped some although, unfortunately, not everybody:

  • Brand New Macbook keeps freezing on start up...

    So, just bought my first MAC and having a horrible experience so far. Brand new computer right out of box froze on me on star-up (at the screen with the spinning thing and the apple logo). So I hold down the power down to restart it and then it boots fine. The computer works fine after that, but when i turn off the computer for a few hours and try to turn it back on, it freezes again at the same spot.
    I called Mac support and they told me to re-install the OS using archiving option, did it and didn't solve the issue, and actually it gave me a Kernel problem after that... So I called again they told me to do a clean install... did it.. and still doing it... I have tried repairing the permissions or whatever and nothing, still freezes on start-up.
    Obviously, they won't let me return it so I can get a brand new one, they want to try to repair it first. This is sad since the computer is not even 1 week old...
    Anyone has any clue what the problem might be ? At this point to me it seems its a hardware issue, i don't think it's software...

    I tried the fdsk and it did not work.
    This morning i got a Kernel problem.
    PANIC (CUP 0 CALLER 0X003A92A) or 1
    UNABLE TO FIND DRIVER FOR THIS PLATFORM "ACPI"
    DEBUGGER CALLED <PANIC>
    There were a bunch of numbers and thing in between but you get the point... and as i was typing this message on my laptop, it froze, had to reboot it.
    Here is the deal, which i don't think it's what's causing it since when i first turned it on without any of these plugged to it, it still froze on start but... I have the Apple pro keyboard and mouse attached to it, plus the Ipod cable + have it plugged to a Dell Monitor.
    Would any of those things cause any problems ? I wouldnt think so, it better not because my sister's dell does the same thing and she has never had a problem with an external keyboard/mouse and monitor plugged in while turning on the computer...
    Pretty sure this computer is just Dead on Arrival like someone said, the bad part is i bought it online at Apple store and i couldnt just walk in and return it...
    Any other suggestions besides calling them and demanding a return ?
    Thanks guys.
